Maverick announces Collaboration Academy

UK distributor Maverick is holding a special Collaboration Academy at the Beaumont House Hotel, Windsor on May 24 to focus on the opportunities presented by the convergence of audiovisual and IT solutions. According to the company, the event, backed by Cisco, Promethean, Sony and Barco among others, will give resellers a hands-on opportunity to see how they can diversify their current portfolio to combine networking and audio-visual technologies together to deliver incremental business.

“We are excited to be able to offer our resellers this new opportunity,” said Mark Tildesley, General Manager of Maverick UK (pictured). “As audio visual and IT technologies evolve our business is changing to support demand for converged infrastructures. Maverick is working with a number of new and existing manufacturers who all now offer compelling solutions which drive collaboration across education and corporate environments. We are really pleased to be able to offer our resellers such an impressive line-up of vendors who can all offer them technologies to drive their businesses forward.”

The event will give resellers the opportunity to see Barco’s ClickShare, get a closer look at Promethean’s ActivTable solution, explore the collaborative opportunities of the InFocus Mondopad and discuss with Cisco the opportunities available through their Cisco TelePresence solutions, learning how they can become accredited to take them to market.
